April 13 vs. Toronto

[ORS]

And here we are.

So what are the chances of Loretta and Ortiz getting on with Manny hitting a three-run blast....

 

I didn't think so either haha

Well manny is on one my fantasy teams, so that won't happen and that explains his slow start.

[SchillingIsTheNatural]

game over

[stocker323]

Ugh. JUST missed it.

[Youk Of The Nation]

....wow. How....anticlimatic.

[TheRivernator]

and he gets Papi to end it, Blue Jays win. They made it interesting at least. Good night all....

Pluses:

 

We see what this team is capable of in the late innings. About ten feet away from extra innings, if not a win.

 

Loretta, Youk, Snow, AND Pena all coming up big with clutch walks and hits. Cora, Snow and Pena are especially great because it shows the strength in our backup and utility players.

 

I strongly believe that though this was a loss, it was a gritty, fight to the finish loss that proves Boston is going to be THE team this season. Remember, its only the ninth game.

 

 

Minuses: Clement, though weve seen him struggle against the Jays, and we know his starts are much better overall.

 

EDIT: Not Cora.

I hoped that ortiz was going to do the same thing to him when Ryan was in the O's Uni and they were in the same position.

Big minus: The starting pitching can't keep killing the team before they even get out of the gates. I know it's Clement and Wells and not one of our aces but this can't become a habit

BJ being BJ. Tried to blow it, but was unsuccessful.

Wells was injured. Remember his first post-DL start against Oakland?

 

He wasnt ready to go out, his start in Pawtucket showed that.

 

Clement almost always gets violated like a prepubescent altar boy by the Blue Jays...hell be strong in his next start against another team.

Clement's next start is against the D-Rays: A team that he has been able to hold his own against. I knew right off that his start against the Blue Jays was something to worry about

[kreinbihl34]

Wow I feel so violated right now...
